This specimen is a classic example of Alpine Titanite on Adularia matrix coated with small, Chlorite crystals. The Titanite is a light brown color which has both hints of green and red depending on the lighting. Although most of the Titanite crystals are either small or incomplete, the largest is in very good condition, exhibits twinning and has a high luster.
Condition: Good
Flaws: Several of the Adularia crystals are incomplete.
